[Cédric Duval]

New submission from Cédric Duval <cedricduval at free.fr>:

[from sborho originally on issue1708, opening a new issue as this is a different
problem - attaching a patch that may possibly help, to be tested]

New symptom:  gendoc.py dies on Windows

python gendoc.py
[...]

ImportError: No module named osutil

This can be resolved by running python doc/gendoc.py from the repository root,
but that is not what the Makefile does.
